Perhaps because of the anger of being deceived and used, Wang Xiao’s tone was very impolite and could even be said to be a little offensive.
However, Chen Jinrong was not angry when he heard this. He was silent for a moment as if he was in a daze before waving at Qi Lianjun. “Let us talk alone.”
“Yes!”
Qi Lianjun agreed and brought Zhou Xiruo out.
There were only two people left in the room.
After a moment of silence, Chen Jinrong took a deep breath and slowly said, “Back then, when we captured Andu, we analyzed his portable resources. Only the use of that beast egg was unknown, so I thought of this method.”
“I did have the intention of using you when I gave you the beast egg of the [Dark Swamp Crocodile Dragon]. However, it’s only because you’re a beast tamer lord and your success rate of hatching the beast egg is higher. As for the origin of the [Dark Swamp Crocodile Dragon], I didn’t find out any earlier than you.”
When Wang Xiao heard this, his first reaction was disbelief. “You’ve captured Andu for so long, how could you not Imow that he’s been to the Purple Star before?”
“We really didn’t know.”
Chen Jinrong looked at Wang Xiao and said helplessly, “It’s far more difficult than you think to get information from the people of the Crimson Star. Moreover, Andu is from the Crimson Star royal family. His loyalty to the
Crimson Star Emperor is unimaginable.”
Hearing this, Wang Xiao frowned even more. “But didn’t you still obtain the information?”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“Were we the ones who obtained it?”
Chen Jinrong sighed with a complicated expression and was silent for a while before saying, “Last night, someone sneaked into the [Extreme Ice Hell] and removed Andu’s seal for an hour.”
“We don’t know what the other party did in that hour, but when I went to see Andu today, his mind had already completely collapsed. ”
“After we removed the ice on Andu, he kept talking about that trip to the Purple
Star. It was also at that time that I learned that the [Dark Swamp Crocodile
Dragon] was a ‘holy beast’ specially nurtured by the Purple Star.”
Listening to Chen Jinrong’s explanation, Wang Xiao only looked at him without saying a word, wanting to determine if he was lying.
However, other than a solemn expression and faint worry on his tired face, Wang Xiao could not see anything else.
“What happened next?”
Wang Xiao asked, “Why didn’t you tell me after you found out about this?”
“So what if I tell you? Was I supposed to make you afraid?”
Chen Jinrong smiled bitterly and looked at Wang Xiao. “I know this is very unfair to you, but the most suitable place to hide a leaf is the forest. You’re a [Beast Tamer Lord], and the [Dark Swamp Crocodile Dragon] is best hidden beside you.”
When Wang Xiao heard this, a strange feeling suddenly surged in his heart. “From what you say, you seem to want me to keep the [Dark Swamp Crocodile Dragon]?”
“Due to the distance, our understanding of the Purple Star is very limited. Therefore, we have to do everything we can to gather information, even mutated beasts.”
Chen Jinrong did not answer Wang Xiao’s question directly, but it could be considered that he had expressed his stance on this matter.
After a pause, Chen Jinrong changed the topic and continued, “Also, let me tell you something. I have sufficient reason to suspect that the mysterious person who infiltrated the Extreme Ice Hell is the Wu Yan you saw today.”
Wang Xiao’s heart skipped a beat and he immediately understood what Chen
Jinrong meant. “Are you saving that he doesn’t have any companions?”
“Theoretically, yes.”
Chen Jinrong nodded. “The person who infiltrated the Extreme Ice Hell also used Wu Yan’s identity. If he has a companion, the risk of the two or even many people sharing the same identity is too great.”
Wang Xiao nodded in agreement. “But if he doesn’t have any companions, why did he say that this isn’t the end?”
“I’m afraid only he knows.”
Chen Jinrong sighed and looked at Wang Xiao with a serious expression. “Even if the Purple Star lord has companions, they must be hiding now. The enemy is in the dark and we’re in the light. It’s almost impossible to find them.”
“However, since they have companions, they will probably communicate their operations to each other. Therefore, I want you to go home now and do whatever you have to do. Just pretend that nothing happened.”
When Wang Xiao heard this, he had a flash of inspiration. “You want to lure the snake out of its hole?”
“I guess so. Regardless of whether it works or not, you can’t go wrong by trying first.”
Chen Jinrong smiled helplessly. “Seeing that he disappeared into thin air after entering the secret realm with you, but you acted as if nothing had happened, this ‘Purple Star companion’ would definitely be curious and want to investigate, right?”
After a pause, he turned to Wang Xiao and said seriously, “Of course, this plan is to use you as bait to lure out the Purple Star lord hiding in the dark.”
“However, the plan hasn’t been launched yet. We’re not even sure if the enemy exists, so I don’t know what will happen next. If you’re worried about encountering danger, you can reject it.”
“Reject?”

In the corridor, Qi Lianjun stood straight at the door while Zhou Xiruo paced back and forth anxiously.
“Adjutant Qi, there’s been no sound for so long. Could something have happened inside?”
Zhou Xiruo asked softly with a worried expression. In the past minute, she had already asked this question no less than three times.
Qi Lianjun smiled bitterly and was about to comfort her when suddenly, there was a loud bang. It was as if something had smashed heavily on the door, causing the entire door to tremble!
Immediately after, an intense argument erupted in the room. One could tell that it was Wang Xiao and Chen Jinrong’s voices. As for the content of their argument, it was completely impossible to tell.
The expressions of the two people outside the door changed. Qi Lianjun hurriedly wanted to open the door, but the door was stuck by something. No matter how hard he tried, it did not move.
Hearing that the noise in the room was getting fiercer, the staff in the other rooms also heard the commotion and stuck their heads out to check the situation.
Seeing this, Qi Lianjun hurriedly pulled Zhou Xiruo behind him. Then, he raised his foot and was about to kick the door when the door opened. “You stingy rooster! Go and die with your resources!”
Wang Xiao cursed fiercely. Then, he walked out of the door with a gloomy expression and pulled Zhou Xiruo towards the elevator.
Qi Lianjun subconsciously wanted to chase after him, but after some hesitation, he entered the room first. “Sir, are you alright?”
“I’m fine!”
Chen Jinrong waved his hand. His face was flushed red and he was clearly still angry. “This brat actually dares to push his luck with me. Pfft! He’s just a [Beast Tamer Lord]. Does he really think that I can’t do anything without him?!”
“Sir, calm down!”
As Qi Lianjun spoke, he hurriedly closed the door. However, Chen Jinrong’s voice was very loud just now. Almost everyone in the corridor could hear him.
For a moment, the staff who came out to check on them whispered to each other, discussing why Commander Chen was suddenly so angry.
At the door of the room at the end of the corridor, a young staff member listened for a moment before looking in the direction of the elevator. His eyes flickered as he pondered something..
